Are there any unlawful detainer attorneys available to answer?  

However, if a tenant were to just ignore it, then you would proceed with eviction (unlawful detainer). 

I did find that the CDC completely overstepped its authority and ordered a blanket national moratorium on evictions until December 31, but at this point, I still had not received any official CDC Declaration from my tenant.So I responded that he's made no effort to pay or to provide evidence that he will pay and that I would be filing the unlawful detainer the next day.

If the tenant fails to make this payment, an unlawful detainer (eviction) can be filed against them beginning February 1, 2021. 

I don’t know why you’re being advised to go through an eviction based on the circumstances you presented.You wouldn’t file an eviction against a tenant who has stated they’re moving out, and then voluntarily moved out and returned the keys as agreed.An eviction (unlawful detainer action) is only done to recover possession of a property that someone is refusing to voluntarily return to you.If you still need to recover money from them after they’re out, then you typically go through small claims.

IF you are going to detain someone against their will know your rights, AND theirs cause this is a sue happy state.On that note I was thinking today that my properties should have a RING or equivalent doorbell system that would alert me if there is someone at the door. 

The basic order will be: Domestic violence/emergencies, criminal, landlord/tenant, civil.Emergency breach of lease involving threats or injury to people or property, and emergency wrongful detainer actions trials will begin on June 5, 2020 (Phase II).Rent escrow actions, provided local departments of health are able to provide inspection, tenant holding over actions trials, as well Warrantsof restitution, will begin on July 20, 2020 (Phase III).Civil trials (i.e. post move out collections cases, suits for failure to return security deposits), and Failure to Pay Rent cases will resume on August 31, 2020 (Phase IV).Courts fully operational on October 5, 2020 (Phase V).Rent court dockets are expected to be staggered throughout the day, at least in Baltimore County.

@Erin MaloneYou dont have a lease, so failiure to pay rent would not work.I believe what you need to is wrongful detainer"

Lessee hereby waives all notice of lessors election to terminate this lease or any election by lessor hereunder, demand for rent, notice to quit, demand for possession, notice of breach of any provision herein and any and all notices and demands which may be required by any stature of any state relating to forcible entry and detainer or lessor and Tennant or common law.

I believe it's called "wrongful detainer".
